EMINENT NIGERIA OBTAINS FREEDOM FOR THEIR PEOPLE

EMINENT NIGERIANS OBTAINED FREEDOM FOR THEIR PEOPLE

Our great leaders achieved political freedom for us in Nigeria. The success of Moses in gaining freedom for Israelites through determination, perseverance and help from God, has inspired great men of all ages to struggle and achieved freedom for their people. Just like the case of Nigeria in the era of great nationalists such as:

Herbert Macaulay
Nnmadi Azikwe
Obafemi Awolowo
Anthony Enahoro
Tafawa Balewa
Amadu Bello
Aminu Kano
Ernest Ikoli
Funmilayo Ransom Kuti
Margaret Ekpo etc

All these people worked hard in order to liberate Nigeria from the shackles of Colonialism. The contemporary society cannot forget the impact of these great people for their role in Nigerian independence. Today, we can say we are part of the nation just like the experience of the Israelites during the leadership of Moses.

THE FUTURE LEADERS

The children are the future leaders, the adults are the present leaders in Nigeria today who are providing service to the nation. The children will definitely take over from the adult, that is one of the reasons why the children were sent to school to acquire the necessary knowledge that will enable them to perform their duties as expected.

QUALITIES OF A GOOD LEADER

From the story of Moses, Joshua, Deborah, and Gideon; it is clear that a good leader is the person who is ready to serve. He leads people by serving them. He should be ready to serve in any capacity and in any part of the country where his/her serve is needed. His major concern should be to render service to God and Mankind.
